Mac OS X 10.7 Lion - Games Not Compatible

just purchased grant theft auto 3 from macgamestore.
at first i had a problem downloading the game to my mac like it took me for ages before i can fully download it.
after it was being downloaded,when i double click it to open it,a small window keeps on appearing and says that "the following disk can't be open" blah blah blah.
i just wanna ask what shall i do with this?
i need a refund if i can't even use it!
thank you.

I was wondering will Cities in Motion game work on iOS Lion? I am planning to upgrade to Lion, and now Apple announced iOS 6 coming this fall. I think there's going to be a lot of compatibility issues when new iOS 6 comes. Does anybody have any clue what will happen?

Does this mean that some games will work with the normal update and not the lion update what u buy off the app store please comment back and if anyone knows would i beable to play sims3 on lion on my mac book air 11inch

Plus all the other games mentioned on here. I have a lot of $$$$ spent on Macgamestore and won't buy any more from them. Their reply to my inquiry was, in essence, "It's Apple's fault so live with it". If I buy more, what happens on the next OS upgrade?

The new software update mountain lion blocks your scrabble are you going to update to satisfy customers who spend money with you??? how do I get this to the developer?? regards Roy

If Scrabble was sold anywhere else, it still won't work in Lion. Its not the fault of any store for developers who no longer update their products for new hardware and operating systems. System requirements are shown, if you do not have the requirements to run a given piece of software, then you must write too and urge the DEVELOPER of the software to support what you have. Stores only sell what is given to them.

I bought a game 15 years ago for my Mac Plus. It doesn't seem to run on my Intel Mac OSX 10.6... waaah! Should I blame the store who sold me this game? No, thats absurd. Today is no different for OLD games that do not run on NEW systems.

I'm upset with apple more than anything for coming out with an OS that broke so many of my old games.

The new Mac Game Store App (now open beta and fully functional) solves the problem of games that won't pass gatekeeper rules in 10.8 (Mtn Lion). If you have gatekeeper enabled, and want to download demos or purchases, you will need to use the new Mac Game Store App.

You can thank Apple for Gatekeeper. You can thank them for no longer supporting PowerPC software in Lion, and removing Rosetta. I'm sure in 10.9 Apple will drop all Carbon support to break even more old/current games. This is a cost of 'upgrading'. I have an older Mac just for the sole purpose of running games I have that no longer work on the newer OSX. It is the only way I can ever play those games again.

Sure Apple just says "ask the developer to update their software", but there are tons of games out there that will never be updated (either the developers don't care, or don't know how).

As for Scrabble... maybe we can just hope a new developer comes around and makes a newer, better scrabble that runs on the newer Macs of today. I'd make one, but I really don't have the time

If anywhere on the store you see missing system requirements that are needed. Inform the store staff immediately so it can be adjusted. Sometimes some things slip through the cracks.

Luxor Mah Jong doesn't work. Can we get refunds for games that don't work after the 7 days? I bought the Luxor bundle for $29.99 and only 2 of the 4 games work. I wrote to support but have received no response.
